Not so many learners really know about this kinda way of acquire English, but always pick up this way of watching the native moving his or her mouth and gestures to put this information into us, it's like we are receiving directly every time or day that makes my English improved better and better gradually until people around me get surprised how I can speak or remember a lot of English. Because I know how to get it.
Korean students are used to being slumped over the desks since they are required to study very hard (around 14 hours per day if you are a high school student). When I moved to the UK for post-graduate studies, I was surprised that no one in libraries was slumped over desks. 😂 Taking a bit of nap during break time is a way for us to study hard being focused, so it does not mean that they did not like your class.
Hi, Luke. I liked this episode as well as other episodes on your RU-vid channel. I'm learning a lot here. Thanks! It's very interesting the words "skive" (UK) and "esquiver" (FR) because in Portuguese (BR) we have the word "esquivar", which means the same thing (in some contexts). It's my first comment here. Greetings...
sorry, why you removed the previous episode? IELTS Speaking with Maria. I find it so helpful for me to prepare for IELTS. How can I watch that episode again?
Wow, literally yesterday I had nothing to listen to and I scrolled down chaotically the podcasts app in order to find some old Luke's episodes and I downloaded parts 1 and 2. I was quite surprised to see a notification today that part 3 is available now.
Soo amazing luke the way you are explaining to us the best way to use and remind this words and with your face mimics make us motivation to suggest meaning..I could not be thankful as much as you deserve...you are amazing teacher
Hahaha, I was smiling 😆I could imagine Korean students slumping over head on the table. Yes, They are resting. It may come from the idea that taking a short nap is better when they have to concentrate on class again after the break. It probably became their habit in high school. High school students in Korea had to find a way to rest quickly during breaks because they had to start their schedules early in the morning and study at their desks until late night (which means they had to keep the same posture all day). They don't mean to give up!😂
Hi Luke! I was Kazakh (not Korean) student, and I was sometimes slumped over the desk during the break time. IMHO it means nothing desperate. It just means I had a bit uncomfortable sleep the night before or I'm trying to gain some energy and attention before the next part of the lesson. Never mind, Luke! That's completely Ok!
I have been watching your videos since last month. It is really helpful and interesting to watch your episodes. Though, I am not a native speaker, I am a huge fan of this language. Please, keep continue your episodes so that we can watch your episodes in the days ahead.
Thank you so much Luke I really enjoyed this session. It was interesting that you noticed many Korean learners slumping over on the desk during a break time and wondered why. To me, it's no wonder as many S.Korean students are kind of pushed to go through serial private tuitions after school even over midnight, which sounds literally insane. Your sessions are enjoyable and to the point, so don't worry 😊
Hello brother, i listened to many podcast of you in different sites but this is the first time I watch RU-vid version, safe to say I really love your podcasts, I'm from morocco
02.02.2024. Hey, Luke. I congratulate you on your one million subscribers. I wish you health and energy to do more interesting podcasts. Greeting from Ukraine. Thank for your work
It's been a real pleasure listening to you LUKE-ing through all those Cockney words, dear LOOK! Thanks for sharing the fruit of your work here with us.💂
That was a really good contribution for my Eng lexicon.🎉🎉🎉 I knew the wind up merchant, waffle and neck in ... And i didnt know about Francois's mistress 😊 affair...by the way. Thanks a lot Luke you've done a greate job ( as D. Trump says ). The ship finally arrived to its destination . We promis you to offload it quickly and use in suitable situation 🎉🎉🎉
Hi Luke, what happened with the previous episode with Russian girl? I have not finished watching it so I would be grateful if it's possible to public this video again
We in Sri Lanka have different methods. Like , sometimes, a whole bottle of liquor is ordered with what we call 'bites' and soft drinks to mix with the liquor. We pay at the end, after the drink. On occasion, a certain quantity like 50ml at a time is ordered to the table. We can take any number of 'shots.' Again payment is done after the drink. We either share the total cost among the members of the group. Sometimes, one person foots the bill.
When a student slumps on the desk with the head on the table, it means that the student is tired and wanting to take a nap. I sometimes do that after a few hours looking at the computer screen.
Korean students are always slumped over a desk in their school just because they feel tired. Of course it could be an expression of giving up or refusing the class. But in most circumstances, It is very common thing happens in school. But if someone does it not in the breaktime, then it is considered as an extremely rude behaviour as well in Korea.
56:00 Haha, I'm a Korean listener and I know what you mean because I used to be one of them in school. I'm very surprised that we are the only students who lay down at break time with foreheads on the table. It's actually very comfortable...! Your slumped Korean students prove your classes were great enough to focus massively hard (and maybe have chronic fatigue😇). It's just normal for us so don't worry about them at all.
Really enjoyed listening to your podcast! 😍 I'm certainly going to listen to the other parts. I really liked the test part at the end... the one I got wrong was "to take the mickey" I thought it was "to take the piss". And I always wondered if it's ok to say "sod's law"... I wonder what we could use instead of that one?
Luke, you are the best English native speaker I've ever heard. English seems a little easier while listening to your explanation. Thanx for your wonderful podcasts.
Tickety boo🎉has a lovely ring to it so I’m going to use that one😁 Some might find the phrase old fashioned but I still like it ❤😊 Actually, I loved all of them and I absolutely loved 🥰 your performance❤❤❤ Were you too zonked to play your new guitar 🎸? I’m a fan and would love to hear you singing 🎤 🎶 Huge thanks ❤❤❤!
It seemed to you like 4 years of exhaustive explanations, and it sounded like 4 minutes for me. You must be exhausted, anyway! Not taking the Mickey at all, just being dead honest. Thank you so much!
In Italy we say : on Thursday and friday it is forbidden leaving, in Italy does in this way: di Venere e di Marte non si parte! The planets related to the name of the days are mentioned in the rhyme
@@sarahm8574 what is your thing?she is just an english teacher that happened to be borned in Russia.what ielts had to do with any war?be reasonable please.if an Ukrainian doesn't want to watch and is offensed then he/she could easily watch another podcast.there are people who liked very much maria and wanted to see it.fortunately i saw this podcast before it was removed
@@sarahm8574 there is no any connection between learning English and Ukraine. Stop searching for the enemies in any russian person. And if it is the reason, why Luke removed the previous episode, so i may say, that he made a big mistake. I thought, he is more reasonable and intelligent person.
@@alexkart please, no politics in studying foreign languages. A lot of russian emigrants live all over the world, they work, pay taxes, help people, live their ordinary lifes as million other people. And you think all of them are enemies to the world?! It's a pure nationalism. Shame of you
The fact that they were completely illitterate and never went to school, but knew exactly when the first day of the month was to banish the witches with a pinch and a punch greatly surprises me.
As a Ukrainian fella working mostly with teams from the UK for the last two years, I can't even express how much your podcasts help me to improve the quality of my communication at work! I 'm definitely quids in having you on my side :P P.S. I really appreciated you reading the room in the last vid. Much love!
For everyone who asks what happened with the video with Maria from Russia!!! There was a big argue between the comments, because some Ukraines 'attacked' Luke because he invited a Russian girl into his podcast. They felt it is rude because of the political things between the nationalities and for this Luke deleted that episode.
Well done on finishing these series. Better late than never eh!? I'm relatively British - passed the citizenship test didn't I? - but I don't know all of these expressions. A pea souper? Sounds like a meal!
Hello Luke, I am a big fan of your podcast. Last week ROLAND-GARROS ended in Paris. This is tennis tournament. Maybe you will have a chance to talk with your father about this tournament or in general to share some information about it in your podcast?
Hello, thank you so much for all of your podcasts! especially free content helped me a lot. In Poland we always make two queues, one to the till and second one to self-service machines. I guess that's because usually in self-service machines you can't pay with cash. Lots of elderly people use cash only. Not sure how's it in France.
Luke, thanks for covering these expressions! Made my day! I will cover one or the other expression for some of my Vocab Man Podcast episodes. Thanks for the inspiration. 1:08:15 I really like to *"take the biscuit"* , but I would be worried if other people (non-native english speakers) understood me. Like Gianni Infantino's bizarre speech on World Cup eve... Gianni Infantino's speech at the World Cup awards ceremony truly *took the biscuit* . His performance definitely *takes the biscuit* for one of the most peculiar speeches in World Cup history." Cheers, Daniel.
@@sarahm8574 its irrelevant....its ielts not a propaganda interview.however it may be it should not affect this type of content.maria was great in her podcast and i will follow her RU-vid channel.
This episode is very tickety-boo👍. I'm not zonked yet and willing to see Part 1&2. Is it available on youtube or do I have to check the audio version on the website?
